Answer Header & Date

How do you know if you need a tummy tuck or if the 360 lipo will work?

Tummy tuck versus Liposuction
Mar 4, 2018

The answer to your question depends on the status of your abdominal wall muscles and the relative amount of any overlying fat. There are many times that the fat is not the issue at all, and it is the muscle which needs to be addressed to improve the abdominal contour. Pinching the fat and feeling how close the muscle is will give you some idea of where you stand. Consulting with a plastic surgeon will help provide you with the right diagnosis and…

Removing implants: Pros and cons of waiting to see if I need a lift? 7 years p.o. MM.

Immediate versus Delayed lift following implant removal
Mar 4, 2018

There are advantages to delaying a lift following breast implant removal that often outweigh performing both procedures at the same time. Delaying the lift allows the tissue to heal and tighten up to some degree over time. After this healing period, you may decide a lift is not even necessary for you. Another advantage of delaying the lift relates to the nature of the capsule around the implant. If a full capsule removal is what you and your surgeon determine to be the best…

My board certified plastic surgeon said my areolas were placed too low. Can pinching skin from each s

Areola Position
Mar 4, 2018

While a single photo makes a complete assessment difficult, the two issues to consider are implant position and areolar position. If your upper chest area is lacking volume, that may indicate the implants are resting a bit low. “Pinching the skin” may help this to some degree, but sometimes the implant also needs to be repositioned. The areola position is often judged in relation to the sternal notch. Your surgeon can best help you determine what measurement is…

Will a tummy tick tighten my under bust area?

Tummy Tuck effects on upper abdominal area
Jan 24, 2018

The contour “roll” you mention is difficult to notice in the photos with your arms being slightly elevated. It would appear, however, that the area you are inquiring about is a common finding in the upper abdomen. This region can be addressed with a tummy tuck because it represents a relatively small amount fat that can be removed with liposuction or by direct excision during a tummy tuck. Discuss this area of concern with your surgeon so it…

Post op gastric bypass with 130 lb. weight loss, complications. Want breast lift with implants, can I

Breast lift and augmentation after weight loss surgery
Jan 24, 2018

Breast augmentation combined with a lift is a very common procedure after significant weight loss. It would be best to wait to have this done until you no longer require any intravenous nutritional support. You mention skin removal in your question also. If this is in reference to your breast shape and contour, this would definitely be included in the lift part of the procedure. Skin removal in other areas, such as the abdomen, is often done at a separate time following…

Do I need to get a tummy tuck, lipo or both?

Tummy Tuck or Liposuction
Jan 23, 2018

As mentioned by the other physicians, the single photo you provide does make it difficult to give you any specific treatment advice. The next step of an office consultation would be appropriate. Determining which, if any, procedure applies to you will depend most on the elasticity of your skin relative to the amount of fat that you are noticing. Your physician will also assess the status of your abdominal muscles. Your photo may be indicating the presence of a small…

What are the 2 small red spots (red areas) on my left inner breast?

Healing after Breast Augmentation
Jan 23, 2018

The red spots in the photos do not represent a hematoma and are more consistent with skin irritation from sensitive skin following your procedure. No treatment is required except ensuring that your postoperative garment edge is not pressing directly on the area. The symptoms you are describing in the left breast are not uncommon, and if they are not associated with increased swelling or fever they most likely have no real significance at this point. They should…

I’m 52 and need advice on plastic surgery. Facelift upper or lower and eyes and neck, advice? (photos

Facelift Considerations
Jan 23, 2018

While there are different approaches to performing facelift procedures, improvements in the neck, jawline, and cheeks regions would be expected. While none of these areas are overly involved in your case, a subtle and natural change could be gained with this procedure. Judging by the photos, your eyes are even less involved and most likely don’t require any surgical treatment at this time. Best regards.

I’m having a mommy makeover, 2 weeks later my son graduates from boot camp. Will I be ok to attend?

Activity after Mommy Makeover
Jan 23, 2018

You mention that you are having a Mommy Makeover, but the exact procedure(s) involved are not mentioned. Another factor to consider is whether you have to travel any significant distance to be part of this special event. Discuss both these considerations with your surgeon. Generally speaking, sitting down for a ceremony would not be considered overly taxing for a patient two weeks after surgery, but you would still have to carefully limit your activity and have…

Is it okay to delay the removal of drains after a tummy tuck?

Drain removal after tummy tuck
Jan 16, 2018

Communicating with your plastic surgeon to coordinate the best time to remove drains following a tummy tuck is very important. Removing drains when there is still significant drainage (your surgeon can define “significant” in your individual case) is not ideal because fluid could gradually accumulate in the area (called a seroma). Leaving a drain in when no significant drainage is occurring interferes with your activity and can potentially increase the risk of infection. In most…

Do I have tuberous breasts?

Tuberous Breast Question
Jan 16, 2018

When a narrower diameter at the base of the breast is accompanied by a larger areolar diameter with increased projection, the tuberous breast designation is appropriate. Your photos appear to support this diagnosis. This is a relatively common situation, and for patients interested in breast augmentation, there are good options available. Best regards.

Are breast augmentation options a good fit for my body and is a super low tummy tuck scar a good poss

Mommy Makeover Questions
Jan 16, 2018

Specific to your question about the implant size selection, the 460cc high profile implant could work very well. Ideally, you could approximate how this would suit your goals with the use of specific volume sizers in your plastic surgeon’s office. Other providers have mentioned the requirement of needing a lift. This is a reasonable consideration and should be discussed with your surgeon. The location of your abdominoplasty incision depends significantly on the degree of your…

Zygoma reduction has caused volume loss and face to sag, would a facelift fix this?

Loss of facial volume after zygoma reduction surgery
Dec 6, 2017

Even giving general advice to your important question would be very difficult without photos and knowing precisely what was done in your initial operation. Many good options are available and finding the one that best suits you requires a consultation with your original surgeon or another recommended surgeon. Best regards.

Follow Up Question: Can a scar revision fix my keloid scars and dog ears from TT?

Tummy tuck procedure and keloid scars
Dec 6, 2017

A complete answer to your important questions requires more information, but hopefully some general information can provide you with some guidance. Dog ears typically involve some combination of excess skin and fat. If the amount of fat involved is significant and extends around to the lower back, liposuction is more valuable than a scar revision by itself. As far as keloid scars go, when the surgery was performed is important to know. Early on, allowing an incision to soften…

Breast Lift and BA: What is the difference between the two and what do you think would be best for my

Breast lift or breast augmentation
Dec 6, 2017

A breast lift (mastopexy) can be performed alone or in combination with a breast augmentation. While a lift does shift existing breast volume up, to have any increase in size, an implant is required. Deciding on adding an augmentation to a lift depends exclusively on the result you feel best meets your goals. Some patients are interested in avoiding a lift and instead consider having implants in an attempt to raise the breast up. Be cautious about using this approach…
